Couples earning over $150K a year don't count as middle class. That's pretty much the upper class cut off, and probably why they chose that amount.

@BiBlackCar1 True, you're high on the middle-class ratio, but at those income levels $1,400 is barely anything. You could buy a single week of debt I suppose. If you're earning that number every year then $1,400 just won't do a lot, especially for people that can make financial decisions to change their expenses.

@jimlovesgina Republicans weren't gonna give them anything, and barely gave them anything for months. Why are you surprised people lost their faith in them?

Because Republicans hate the people.

@akdreaming Nothing in the bill went overseas or to pork projects. The bill included funding for: Schools Vaccine distribution Small business loans Direct payments The only reason they wanted to wait until after the election was because the Republican bill only gave $600 and cut taxes for corporations, doing very little for the people of this nation.

@firebir11 You have to file taxes to get the payments, neither of those groups do that.

No it isn't. It's going to funding vaccine deployment, schools, stimulus checks and small business loans.

Non of the stimulus money is earmarked for foreign aid.

@akdreaming It literally does. The bill was help up for weeks because Republican's wanted to lower the amounts given to people and reduce other benefits.

@audi9009 Yes, they held the bill in the senate for weeks.

@akdreaming Al of the things you listed are for lobbying, not for the programs themselves, they are also not in this bill, but are in separate bills passed.

@Thelastdan Senate votes need 60 to pass. They were trying to make a deal with Republican's, but they lowered the domestic aid so substantially that it wasn't worth, so they pushed through using budget reconciliation.
